Co-curricular activities
Student Development
- The College has been giving equal importance to curricular and co-curricular activities aiming to have overall development of students, like sports, cultural activities and etc.
- Ccurricular activities provide opportunities for students to build quality human resource to meet the future needs in the area of horticulture and agriculture sectors in the country, while co-curricular activities available in the College helps the students to become better citizens of the country.
Though B.Sc. (Hort.)and B.Sc. (Agri.) graduates are technically sound may lack in communication and entrepreneurship skills which affects their employability. To overcome these shortcomings, College administration has taken several initiatives as presented below:
- Practical exposure to understand real field conditions under RHWE programme and the subsequent project work in their chosen field helps them to narrow down their interests and focus on their core area of interest.
- Project work by each department is based on the real farmer issues that are discussed in ‘Farmer’s Thinking Forum’ meetings conducted in the campus. Wherein students were encouraged to participate and understand the needs of the society.
- Hands on training and field exposure visits that form a part of the curriculum also play a major role in student development. To augment the knowledge gained, non-academic clubs help to build confidence to engage and channelize the student’s energy in a productive manner.
- The theory and practical sessions attach emphasis on production, protection and post-harvest handling aspects including creation of value chain for horticulture produce.
- Students are motivated to know their strengths and weaknesses, procedure for setting academic goals in areas like time management, comprehending the assignment, establishing a disciplined study routine, knowledge about the faculty and optimum use of the campus resources helps to improve the student’s performance.
The College admits on an average 80 students for UG programmes both in Horti and Agri. In addition, 15 per cent ICAR quota, 5 per cent lateral entry and 15 per cent NRI quota for B.Sc. (Hons.) Horticulture.
